"Downstream from Paris on the banks of the Seine, a centuries-old water mill is the charming setting for the boutique hotel Moulin de Connelles. This landmark was expanded and updated over the years — the mill was dismantled and the building transformed into a half-timbered manor house in the early 1900s — but the place still oozes period charm, with Baccarat crystal chandeliers illuminating the oak-paneled dining room, champagne served on riverfront terraces, and wooden boats floating idly by. Rooms are elegant and quaint, some with sloping ceilings and alcove balconies, others with reading nooks and Jacuzzis, and all furnished with antiques. The outdoor pool and gardens are scenic spots to relax and sip apéritifs after rowing over to the hotel’s private island." - Tablet Hotels
